I recently installed Mandrake 10.0 as a dual-boot along with Windows XP Home on my laptop, but decided against it and removed it.
LILO was installed, of course, but now that Linux is off my system it's not neccissary. Thanks to Google, I've found many guides on how to uninstall LILO. Unfortunately, there's a catch...
My laptop is a Sony Vaio PCG-FRV37. This model comes with neither a Windows XP install CD nor a floppy drive. It also comes with an unknown password for Windows XP's administrator account. On top of that, Windows XP (as I'm sure you know) does not include DOS. All of the methods for removing LILO that I've seen require one of these three things.
I'm hoping that someone here can either supply me with an alternative method for removing LILO, or, failing that, a method to recover my XP Administrator password.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can help.
